Overview of Friendship Village of Bloomington

Friendship Village of Bloomington in Bloomington, Minnesota, operates as a nonprofit continuing care retirement community established in 1979. The 85-bed facility on Highwood Drive in Hennepin County holds a 5-star CMS rating and has earned Newsweek’s Best CCRC Recognition for 2026. Owner Jennifer Bever and Executive Director David Miller oversee a property offering independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing, memory care, and short-term rehabilitation within a single campus model serving residents aged 62 and above.

Staffing hours per resident day (4 hours 46 minutes) exceed Minnesota averages at 32.3 percent above benchmark, yet staff-to-resident ratio (1.69:1) trails state norms by 23 percent.

Payroll investments of $16.5 million represent 48.8 percent of gross revenue, which is notably lean compared to peer standards.

A routine inspection conducted March 13, 2025, identified six deficiencies at violation rates 54 percent above state average. Inspectors cited food service failures reaching level-two scope at widespread scale, documented gaps in employee background study clearances affecting two staff members, incomplete dementia care training for one employee, and inadequate care documentation involving a resident’s assistive device. No critical findings or enforcement actions resulted; corrective timeframes ranged from two to twenty-one days. The facility was assessed as substantially compliant.

Residents demonstrated significantly reduced decline in activities of daily living (68 percent better), depression symptoms at zero percent, and urinary tract infections at zero percent.

Short-stay discharge outcomes showed residents achieving functional improvement at 30 percent above state average. Conversely, long-stay residents sustained falls with major injury at 7.1 percent—nearly triple the state average—and antipsychotic medication use at 25.7 percent runs substantially above benchmark.

Friendship Village’s financial position shows operating losses of $17.9 million.

The facility serves private-pay and Medicare residents only; no Medicaid beds are provided.

Litigation records show five closed cases dating to 1983–2014 with no active litigation.

Friendship Village suits private-pay and Medicare residents seeking a long-established CCRC campus model with strong clinical staffing and comprehensive care continuity across independent, assisted, and skilled nursing levels.

Staff type	Hours / Day / Resident	vs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.	1h 9m per day	▲ 8% State avg: 1h 4m per day · National avg: 41m per day

They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.	35m per day	▼ 6% State avg: 37m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility.

Weekend Total Nursing Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.	3h 40m per day	■ Avg State avg: 3h 41m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day
Physical Therapist Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants.

Weekend RN Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.	50m per day	▲ 21% State avg: 41m per day · National avg: 28m per day
